Minia: diferenças entre revisões

In the [[Middle Ages]] and during the rule of the [[Abbasids]], Minya’s name became attached to [[Ibn Khasib]], the appointed benevolent and almost legendary ruler of Egypt in the early [[Ninth Century]]. Ibn Khasib loved Minya so much that when was asked by the [[Caliph]] to name a reward for his good deeds, he chose Minya where he would retire and die few years later. Ibn Khasib is credited for expanding Minya and transferring it from a large village to a robust [[Middle Ages|Medieval]] city. Since Ibn Khasib years, Minya has been referred to as ''Munyat ibn Khasib'' (Ibn Khasib’s Minya). During the rule of the [[Fatimid Caliphate]] in the [[Tenth Century|Tenth]] and [[Eleventh Century|Eleventh]] Centuries, Minya continued to expand and it included large mosques, schools, a bazar, and public baths. In 1326 A.D. [[Ibn Battuta]], the famous medieval travellar, visited Minya and was impressed by what he saw there. Minya was noted and regarded with high praise in Ibn Battuta’s account of his travels called the ''[[Rihla]]'' because of the school it used to have when he visited the city. Ibn Battuta’s described Minya as a town that “excels all the other towns of Upper Egypt.”<ref>{{cite book|author= Ibn Battuta|title= The Travels of Ibn Battuta in the Near East, Asia and Africa|ISBN= 978-1-61640-262-4|location=New York|publisher= Cosimo|date=2009|pages=14-16}}</ref>

 

 

O setor público predomina na indústria, controlando a maior parte da produção de bens de capital e intermediários. Entre as indústrias estatais são cimento, mineração, fertilizantes e indústrias agrícolas. O setor privado está ativo na fabricação de bens de consumo, em particular nas pequenas e em torno da cidade. As principais indústrias privadas são [[produtos alimentícios]], [[móveis]], [[metal]] e [[madeira]]. Embora seja rico em história, o turismo desempenha um papel insignificante na economia de Minya, devido à violência que dominou a região na [[década de 1990]], quando o governo lutava contra militantes islâmicos.
